The sworn statement Of the Board Of
Supervisors and the District Attorney in
relation to the money required to be in
the hands of the County Treasurer ap-
pears in another column. The statement
is made in compliance with Section 42l
OF the Revised Statutes, which reads as
follows:
''The Board of Supervisors and District
Attorney must at least every three months
count the money in the County Treasury,
and make and verify in duplicate, state
ments showing:
81. The amount Of money that ought
10 be in the Treasury.
"2. The amount and kind Of money
actually therein"
. Under the above Section the Board Of
Supervisors and District Attorney have
certified under oath that the county ought
TO have had on the 3rd day Of October.
1887, the sum Of q, ,26S.65 In money in ito
safo. Upon counting the money the
amount Tailed, but according TO the re-
port the sum Of s5l2.l5 was found to be
In checks. The report does not state
whether these checks were good, bad or
indifferent, but presuming that they were
perfectly good, and We have no doubt but
that they were, We maintain that it was
the plain and positive duty Of the Board
Of Supervisors TO require the Treasurer to
produce the money in place OF the checks.
They are required TO count money, not
checks, and that the money WAS not
there is shown by their report. This may
seem small matter, and one which con-
Germs only the Treasurer and his bonds-
men, but the county has lost much money
in years gone by through worthless
checks, accepted by former Treasurers in
lieu Of money, and in this case we believe
in locking the stable door before the
horse is stolen, instead Of after.

UNUSUALLY FINE CROPS.
A Splendid Report From PittsbOro,
Miss Nearly Every thing Do
ing Well.

tuk Vshhs
IcoIRKspoSDEScE OF rHH ArrEAL.l
PITnB oRo, Miss, July THE corn
crop promises to be one Of the best
ever raised in this county. We have
bad very favorable spring to plant
and cultivate crop. Fully two-thirds
of the corn crop was planted from tle
Let to the 20 n OF March and Is now ia
full silk and tassel and we think 1t Is
safe for a full crop. We lal a three
weeks drouth during the early part Of
June, but on the 2lst we had a good
rain, and for the last week II has been
raining more or lees every day. At
this time the ground Is thoroughly
wet, and some neighborhoods have
had two months Of rain. The cotton
crop Ia some two weeks earlier than
last year, with good stands generally,
but during the cool spell In May the
lice got on II very considerably aud
Injured the stand in many places. 1t
has been we'll worked and is clear OF
grass, owing 10 the dry weather. The
weed is small but is full OF forms, and
began blooming two weeks earlier
than last year. The prospect 10 the
best for cotton crop kcown in four
or five years. The oat crop was light,
not over half an average crop. The
fruit crop Ia q total failure, except sp-
Piles, Of which there Is about hall q
crop, and that is very sorry. Sorghum,
sweet potatoes and millet ell look
promising and will make foil crop
Stock Is all doing well. We have but
few hogs, having lost at least two
thirds OF them last year, but what ",
have are thrifty and looking well
There Ia a fine prospect Tor q gooC
mast. There is also foe crop O
candidates, but not much political eI
element, as this county Is largel'
Democratic; there are no lee
that good men will be called to hl
the offices. The colored vote Is Irs
